After saying all this, Fang Mu Ling immediately turned and left the cave dwelling.
It was clear that she understood that when others were cultivating, it was best for others not to stand around.
Seeing that Fang Mu Ling was actually guarding the entrance of the cave, Qin Chen smiled slightly. He raised his hand, and a series of restrictions immediately formed, creating a concealment formation that enveloped the entire cave.
Next, Qin Chen quickly took out thousands of low-grade Cosmic Crystals and scattered them around. One by one, the Cosmic Crystals floated in the surrounding space, and a rich Cosmic Crystal Aura immediately spread out.
Then, Qin Chen took out hundreds of middle-grade Cosmic Crystals. The energy of these middle-grade Cosmic Crystals was more than a hundred times stronger than that of the low-grade ones. The pure Cosmic Crystal energy made Qin Chen feel his pores open up with every breath.
A substantial boost, indeed a substantial boost.
Qin Chen greedily inhaled this aura. With his current cultivation level, it was extremely difficult to enhance his strength in the Primal Universe, but in the cosmic sea, with enough Cosmic Crystals, he could almost cultivate without restriction before breaking into transcendence.
Huff!
Qin Chen quickly sat cross-legged, and a large amount of Cosmic Crystal energy was rapidly absorbed into his body. At the same time, he began to transform the primordial power within him, converting it into the Cosmic Crystal power most suitable for this realm.
The cosmic sea origin contained within the Cosmic Crystals was continuously absorbed by Qin Chen, and soon, the original primordial power was compressed and transformed into a new form of primordial power.
After Qin Chen completely used up tens of thousands of low-grade Cosmic Crystals and hundreds of middle-grade Cosmic Crystals, most of his primordial power had been compressed and transformed into the cosmic sea origin.
Boom!
The primordial power within Qin Chen surged violently, and he finally began to unleash waves of half-step transcendent power. With the enhancement from the Cosmic Crystals, his cultivation truly stepped into the half-step transcendence realm, and a vague transcendence aura spread around him.
Qin Chen felt an immense joy in his heart. He never expected that the Cosmic Crystals would be so powerful, allowing him to directly and thoroughly enter the half-step transcendence realm.
In fact, Qin Chen already had the transcendent origin of the Black Demon Ancestor Emperor within him. Through continuous comprehension over these days, Qin Chen had gained ample insight into the transcendence realm. However, it was difficult to break through in the Primal Universe. Once he entered the cosmic sea, his cultivation enhancement became unrestricted. Coupled with the abundance of Cosmic Crystals, his cultivation erupted, and he made a leap into the half-step transcendence realm.
At this moment, Qin Chen could clearly feel that his strength had significantly increased.
Qin Chen finally understood why so many people wanted to enter the cosmic sea; cultivating in the cosmic sea was simply too exhilarating.
Unfortunately, the Cosmic Crystals he originally set aside were sufficient, which is why he gave Fang Mu Ling half of them, but after breaking into transcendence, the Cosmic Crystals on him suddenly felt insufficient.
This was quite awkward.
For Qin Chen right now, it was obviously better the more his cultivation improved. If the transcendent experts of the Dark Clan were to chase after him again, he would at least have enough power to protect himself.
But the things had already been given away; he couldn't just go ask others to return them, could he?
Just then, from outside the cave, some Cosmic Crystals floated in and landed within Qin Chen's concealment formation, causing the Cosmic Crystal Aura around him to surge.
These Cosmic Crystals were unexpectedly all middle-grade.
Qin Chen looked up in shock.
He then heard a cold snort from the cave entrance: "I sensed that the Cosmic Crystal Aura inside you weakened a lot. Is it because you can’t absorb low-grade Cosmic Crystals anymore? In fact, low-grade Cosmic Crystals contain many impurities. People who have cultivated in the cosmic sea for years rarely absorb low-grade Cosmic Crystals; not only is the absorption slow, but they'll also accumulate quite a bit of impurities in their bodies. It’s more convenient to cultivate on one’s own. I have some middle-grade Cosmic Crystals here; I’ll lend them to you for now."
